Otto_W_Montreal

I had a romantic date last night at Otto Restaurant, located at the W Montreal.  WOW.  It was a candle light dinner by the window table and the food was delicious.  I ordered Tuna Tartar and my date ordered Linguine Pasta.  Tuna tartar with guacamole base, tuna on top with a touch of cilantro was to die for.  I can still taste the tuna and guacamole, it was beyond delicious and very filling and extremely fresh.  I tasted the pasta that my date ordered, and it was delicious.  It had a little spice to it which added the taste that you want to keep having it over and over again.  The staff provided great service and the ambiance was beautiful.  If you want to take someone on a date or just have a romantic dinner with your significant other then I highly recommend this restaurant.  You will walk out very satisfied.

CocoBongo_Brossard

My cousin was staying at my place and when we woke up we were lazy to make breakfast.  So before we started our day of shopping we stopped at Coco Bongo to have a quick breakfast.  I had never heard of this place but would see it every time I would drive towards the highway.  My cousin and I wanted to try something new so we went there.  I was not really impressed with the menu so ordered something I had before at a different restaurant, French Toast with Bananas and Chocolate Chip with English Creme.  We had to wait a long time for the coffee and they didn't fill the mug.  The mugs they have are good in size but they would only fill half the mug.  We asked for refill a few times but the staff was not as attentive as they should be.  Overall, I was not happy with the service.  Food was also nothing special.  French Toast was not as warm as it should be and the taste was nothing special.  I can most likely make better French Toast at home.  I would not recommend this place for anyone.  I know I will not be going back for sure.
